how do i explain gently to my boyfriend...?
Okay, well for Valentines day my boyfriend bought me this really pretty necklace. It wasn't an expensive expensive type, however it was from a jewellers store, not an accessories store so it's worth a bit of money.
Anyway, he's not one to throw around his money. He comes from a very poor working-class family, and he doesn't make a lot of money himself, so for him this was probably a big thing.
I'm gonna guess the necklace was between 30-50 dollars, and that's what I'm really hoping with what I'm about to ask...
He slept over at my house last night. When we went to bed I took the necklace off and put it on my bedside table. In the morning, I went for my phone to check the time and I flipped everything off it. Including the necklace.
I just came home from work and realised that my necklace was part of the stuff that flipped. I found the chain, but the pink pendant/charm thingy (the thing that makes the necklace a necklace) is gone.
There's abosolutely no way to find it. My room is HELLA messy, plus I'm fair sure it dropped into a box full of absolute crap, and even if I took everything out I wouldn't be able to find it, it's so tiny and would fall out once I move around stuff.
So now I'm really nervous about telling him. As I said, that's a big deal to him, and I'm scared he'll react about the sentimental value as well.
I could always not tell him...but I always wore it, and he'd eventually ask why I don't wear it anymore...

Look for it. Isn't this the perfect opportunity to clean your "hella messy" room? You might find other things that have gone missing too.
Your boyfriend was there when the necklace was over. So, explain to him that when everything fell off, the necklace did too. The charm has to still be there somewhere, so be totally honest. He sleeps over- so he knows that your room is a mess already. It's in there somewhere! Maybe he'll even help you clean!
Also, you could try to figure out where he bought it and buy a new one. However, in this case I would say that is quite ridiculous, since the charm is in your room and you know it. It'd be a waste of money.
In the future (or if you don't want to clean after you look for the charm) keep a jewelry box on your nightstand and put the necklace in there when you take it off. That way, when it falls off, it'll be in a relatively large box.
Good luck! :]

Try looking for it before you tell him. Go slow but really look. I think this means alot to you too. So look slow and go carefully and try. If you couldn't find it act as if it really meant something to you and you feel so upset about losing it. You do feel bad because you are asking this question. So go slow and go really slow while looking for it. Good luck! I hope you find it!

I think if the necklace means as much to you as it does to him. why not go slow with cleaning your room in the end you will have a clean room and probably the piece to the necklace. take your time while cleaning and be careful when moving everything around.

Try looking for it. Seriously, when boys give gifts like that it means a lot to them regardless of if they have the money for it or not. Before you consider telling him anything, go through your room, clean it, or make it more of a mess looking for it. But just try.
Otherwise, I'd suggest telling him that you accidentally knocked it off and you can't find the pendant but you have looked for it. Tell him your really upset because you loved that necklace. ( even if it wasn't your favourite necklace make it seem like it was).
Goodluck!

obviously if you think it would break his heart if he found out even if it accidently got lost, then if you really cared about him, you would try to find it. "i think it fell in a box of absolute crap" so dont be lazy and LOOK for it. clean your room. or tell him you accidnetly knocked it off your desk and you want him to help look for it in your room with you
